- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “St Jude's Laundry, which in the process of closure, was able to be transferred to the Pedley Group on 1 July 2024. This therefore saved jobs and enabled the laundry to continue trading into the future. Their continued presence on the site has also kept the jobs within the community, while providing an additional source of income for Forth Sector.”
